I wasn't sure how to contact the family of Prof. Cornelius but found this online. I wanted to thank you (and her) as I am the 2022 recipient of her scholarship. I am a rising sophomore at MCCC. I will be graduating with degrees in Engineering, Mathematics and Computer Science and hope to attend Rutgers for my bachelors degree.
I have always loved math but had not considered it for further study until I got to MCCC. I am planning to perusing a degree in mechanical engineering, but have added a mathematics degree to my coursework. I was in the middle of my discrete math course when I learned that I had been offered the scholarship. I wanted to thank you for the scholarship and all of the opportunities that it will afford me. I am looking forward to my future and my education from MCCC has really helped to set me on the right course. Thank You!

Dear Jeff and family,
Betty was one of my favorite roommates in college. I always admired her sparkling personality and (envied) her excellent ability in math. Although I have not stayed in touch over the years, I have very fond memories of Betty. She was a beautiful person. My heartfelt sympathy goes out to you at this sad time in your lives.
Sincerely,
Henry Cortacans

I was introduced to Betty Cornelius last spring in Math Class while attending Mercer County Community College as an adult learner. I thought she was and is one of the most sincere, pleasant, genuine, and caring individuals I have ever met. I am saddened by her loss. I know she has touched many hearts with her career and that she will be missed greatly. My regards to Betty's family and friends. I have the impression that she lived her life to the fullest, and anyone who attended her classes could see she did what she loved to do right to the end. God Bless.
